    The best ufc match thread got me thinking of some great none ufc fights from over the years. Maybe we could merge threads if this doesnt warrant its own.

    Who could forget this one:

    A personal favourite for it's old school style versus style matchup, and the Brasilian hissyfit:

    Igor Vovchanchyn vs Adilson Lima

    This thread put me on a major Nog buzz, im not a fan of the guy at all but watching him and seeing the holds he's going for Frank Mir better be watching the same youtube clips and greasing up his arms lol :D and when he falls he doesn't just go for a leg to hug it does he !!!!!

    It's big Nog who is fighting Frank Mir, the guy fighting Shogun in that video is lil' Nog, his younger brother.

    Big Nog= Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira aka Minotauro

    Lil' Nog = Antonio Rogerio Nogueira aka Minotoro

    Confusing as hell I know, but luckily they're in different weight categories - heavyweight and light heavyweight respectively.

    Also Big Nog was nearly killed in a tractor accident when he was a child. As a result he has a scar on his back.
